Episode 5: Yellowstone Womble
Great Uncle Bulgaria is delighted to welcome his long lost Cousin Yellowstone from America but Tobermory's not so sure. Performed by Richard E Grant.
The Wombles live under Wimbledon Common, and it is their special responsibility to 'tidy up' everything that untidy human beings leave behind.
Radio 4 and Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Sounds celebrate these much loved classic characters, marking 50 years since The Wombles first appeared on the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ.
This joyful festive listen is based on the original books by Elisabeth Beresford, performed by Richard E Grant, directed by Johnny Vegas and nestled in a new soundscape for Christmas 2023.
Full of fun and warmth, with an underpinning environmental message - this is novelty and nostalgia combined and a gift of Christmas comfort-listening for all to enjoy.
